[QUOTE="Beefer518, post: 2823813, member: 87737"]A clad dime weighs 2.27 grams, so you're way over-weight for a dime planchet. A clad quarter should weigh 5.670 grams, so you're underweight there. Hmm. A quarter, if struck on a dime planchet, would not have the full design and rim, like yours. It would never physically fit on a dime with full image. If I had to guess, it's some type of planchet error, but I haven't a clue what kind. Possibly struck on a foreign planchet? Do you have a digital caliper to measure the diameter and thickness? That could help possibly narrow down what planchet it is on. I would hold on to it, and possibly submit it for attribution.[/QUOTE]
